Ordered delivery of data packets based on type of path information in each packet

Abstract:

A system may include multiple electronic devices and multiple hardware transceivers. The multiple electronic devices may be coupled to each other via an interface network, and may include multiple chiplets. The multiple hardware transceivers, with at least one transceiver included in or coupled to a respective electronic device of the multiple electronic devices, may each be configured to receive data packets from a source device. The data packets may each include a path field including path information indicating a path to a destination device and a bridge-type field including bridge-type information indicating a type of the path information in the path field. The source device and the destination device may each include a chiplet. The multiple hardware transceivers may each be further configured to transmit the received data packets to the destination device using the path information and the bridge-type information of each received data packet.
